I reported the missing jpilot backup about a week ago to bug tracking at SuSE. Even the link on their web site for downloading patches is broken.

Well Group:

Here we go again. It seems that jpilot is not correctly working in 8.2 (it blows up). Furthermore, Yast2 Updates fails while downloading a jpilot backup file.rpm.

Thanks for the information I did download about 4 programs for this jpilot and finally got them to compile. I checked the size of my binaries verus SuSE8.2 and my file are much larger plus they work. The compiler problem seem to have come from requesting TK/TCL support which is part of SuSE 8.2 and TK/TCL 8.4 -- 73 de Donn Washburn __ " http://www.hal-pc.org/~n5xwb " Ham Callsign N5XWB / / __ __ __ __ __ __ __ 307 Savoy St. / /__ / / / \/ / / /_/ / \ \/ / Sugar Land, TX 77478 /_____/ /_/ /_/\__/ /_____/ /_/\_\ LL# 1.281.242.3256 a MSDOS Virus "Free Zone" OS Email: n5xwb@hal-pc.org Info: http://www.knoppix.net

I was speaking of the libraries. I didn't check the binaries. However, almost every option seems to work. Unfortunantly all I have to test it with is a Palm Zire m150. SuSE 8.2's binary blewup and beside would not show any of the backed up data on the jpilot screens. Philipp Thomas wrote:

That has nothing to say. Run strip on the binaries and the sizes should be close to 8.2 files. Binaries are normally stripped of debugging information when building RPMs.
